Jodha Akbar: Rukaiya Dreaming For New Honour And Power

Jodha Akbar's March 27th episode: Akbar comes back to Agra with his family. Salim and his force come back from the battlefield; they are given a grand welcome in the palace of Agra. Salim tells Akbar that he has taken a wonderful gift for him. He presents Mirza Hakim to Akbar.

Akbar tells Mirza that he will not be treated like a captive, but like a guest in the Mughal palace. Mirza understands his mistake soon and admits that he was being driven by some misunderstandings. He feels extremely ashamed and guilty for his attitude.

Jodha tells Mirza that she can never forget his respect for her. She mentions that Mirza broke all ties with Sharifuddin when the brute kidnapped her. Mirza still feels ashamed to stay in Agra and insists on going back to Kabul. Akbar permits him.

The condition of the state improves gradually. Akbar decides to make a grand celebration. He calls Pandit Badrinath and begs apology for his previous arrogance. Badrinath pardons him; he appoints the pious man as the royal astrologer.

Hoshier informs Rukaiya that the emperor is going to honour one of his queens with the title of Mallika-E-Hind. Hoshier says that it must be given to Rukaiya, as she has served the common people like a maid servant during the period of crisis.

Akbar comes to Rukaiya to show a gem which he is to give to the Mallika-E-Hind; he winks and says that he will announce the name in the festival. Rukaiya thinks Hoshier was right. She eagerly waits for the festival.
